Accept my most gratefull Thanks for your friendly Favour of the 17th Inst. I would immediately set off to see you, but that I have at length a number of Auditors to examine my Acct. and I expect to begin on them in a few Days, when this is done I shall immediately leave this Place.—

I have written Billy all the news I can collect.—
